Who cares what other people think... I'd rather look good and lose then the other way around. Besides the evo is already faster than 9 out of 10 cars on the street

Power. My goal is to get the most out of my evo on the stock turbo. I will have done that this weekend after I install HKS 272s and reflash the ECU. Then I want to do suspension mods and get a C-West front, eventually new rims to. I also want a 600 sport bike so I might just get that next.

depends on your purpose...I mean, the Evo has enough power for your casual driver... `If you want to track the car, or set some speed records, mod it...If you are cool with the power already in the car, go for the looks...

Go toss on some basic bolt-ons, get up to 300whp, then get a nice CF hood that weighs MUCH less than stock, and you will be set.
